Excerpta Medica Abstract Journal

This journal aims to provide its readers with a swift, yet complete, current awareness service. This is achieved both by the scope and structure of the journal, key features of which are:-

• Careful selection of relevant abstracts (and other bibliographic data) from the latest issues of 4,000 leading international biomedical journals.

• The arrangement, within each issue, of abstracts into separate chapters devoted to a specific topic. The journal covers the diagnostic and therapeutic applications of radioisotopes in biomedicine, and includes the radiobiology of isotopes, aspects of radiohygiene, new labelling techniques and tracer applications. The routine use of techniques such as radioimmunoassay and aspects of radiobiology and radiohygiene unrelated to radioisotopes are excluded from the coverage.

• Detailed author and keyword indexes to allow the reader to locate items of special interest.
